Add circular templates for LLAMA detections
To implement this we need to do the following:
-
Add example templates to DCC document for P&P review: https://dcc.ligo.org/LIGO-P2300108 -
Define the conditions each type should be generated (e.g. a file or label being uploaded to GraceDB?) -
Define the data products unique to LLAMA available, with an example(s) of how to parse. -
Create new compose method compose_llama()
that grabs the correct data and use newllama*.jinja2
template files. -
Create at least one example of each using the tools of ligo-followup-advocate
to show the new code works properly.

SUBJECT: Neutrino candidate(s) from joint gravitational-wave and high-energy
neutrino search using LLAMA: low-significance LVK trigger SYYMMDDxx
The IceCube Collaboration ((http://icecube.wisc.edu/) together with the LIGO
Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, and the KAGRA Collaboration
reports:
Searches for track-like muon neutrino events detected by IceCube consistent
with the sky localization of gravitational-wave candidate SYYMMDDxx in a time range
of 1000 seconds [1] centered on the alert event time
(MM/DD/YY HH:MM:SS UTC to MM/DD/YY HH:MM:SS UTC) have been performed.
During this time period IceCube was collecting good quality data. The hypothesis
test employed by LLAMA uses a Bayesian approach to quantify the joint GW + neutrino
event significance. [2]
1(2,3) track-like event is found in spatial and temporal coincidence with the
gravitational-wave candidate SYYMMDDxx. The event’s properties can be found at
this URL:
https://gracedb.invalid/superevents/SYYMMDDxx
Based on the analysis of gravitational-wave data alone, this candidate does not
meet our criteria for a high-significance public alert.
Properties of the coincident neutrino(s) together with the p-value(s) associated
with the joint observation is(are) shown below.
dt ra dec Angular Uncertainty(deg) p-value
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
xxx.xx rr.rr dd.dd uu.uu p.pppp
where:
dt = Time offset (sec) of track event with respect to GW trigger.
Angular uncertainty = Angular uncertainty of track event: the radius of a
Circle representing 90% CL containment by area.
p-value = the p-value for this specific track event from each search.
The IceCube Neutrino Observatory is a cubic-kilometer neutrino detector
operating at the geographic South Pole, Antarctica. The IceCube realtime alert
point of contact can be reached at roc@icecube.wisc.edu

SUBJECT: Multimessenger candidate from joint gravitational-wave and high-energy
neutrino search using LLAMA: low-significance LVK trigger SYYMMDDxx associated
with IceCube alert IceCube-YYMMDDA
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, and the KAGRA
Collaboration reports:
A LLAMA search for LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA gravitational-wave candidate consistent
with the sky localization of IceCube alert IceCube-YYMMDDA (<link to notice>)
in a time range of 1000 seconds [1] centered on the alert event time
(MM/DD/YY HH:MM:SS UTC to MM/DD/YY HH:MM:SS UTC) have been performed.
The hypothesis test employed by LLAMA uses a Bayesian approach to quantify
the joint GW + neutrino event significance. [2]
Gravitational-wave candidate SYYMMDDxx is found to be in spatial and temporal
coincidence with IceCube-YYMMDDA public alert. The properties of the candidate
event, which based on the analysis of gravitational-wave data alone does not
meet the LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA criteria for a high-significance public alert can
be found at this URL:
https://gracedb.invalid/superevents/SYYMMDDxx
The neutrino trigger time is xxx.xx seconds before(after) the gravitational-wave
candidate event. The p-value associated with the joint observation is 0.00pp.
We encourage further observation of the localization area of IceCube-YYMMDDA
and we provide a joint localization probability map at:
